"Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden!
The God who is our salvation."
Psalm 68:19
We are in the hiding place of the Most High; therefore He helps us to continue the walk, free from all the conflicts and curses that devastate those who are not under His shelter.

Prodigies
"By awesome deeds you answer us with righteousness, O God of our salvation, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas;" Psalm 65:5
The people of the Universal Church, all around the world, are in hope and certain of God's righteous answer.

Lips
"I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will keep my vows to you, that which my lips uttered and my mouth promised when I was in trouble." Psalm 66:13-14
In the day of trouble it is easy to make promises. The difficulty lies in fulfilling them when everything is going well. However, the faithful keep their faith and fulfill their vows.

Vows
"Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving and pay your vows to the Most High;" Psalm 50:14
The sacrifice of praising God with your lips is an expression of love that doesn't require a great deal of servitude; however, fulfilling your vows requires something more: obedience and faith.

Live
"For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God." Romans 8:13-14
Listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit disciplines us to live correctly and because of this, we sacrifice the desires of our flesh and choose to please God. Therefore, the promise of God is fulfilled: Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. In other words, He will make the dreams of your heart come true.

Recipe For Victory
"Oh, that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways! I would soon subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their foes." Psalm 81:13-14
Here is the recipe for victory in life. There is no way you can go wrong when you listen to God's voice and practice it. The difficulty isn't in hearing but in practicing. To practice, it takes courage and determination (sacrifice) to deny yourself.

Force
"From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force." Matthew 11:12
There's no easy entry into heaven. It requires sacrifice everyday, at every moment, always... It's not that God makes it difficult to enter but rather hell that works day and night, without ceasing, to try to impede the salvation of those who are called and chosen.
If we were to depend on feelings then no one would be saved. We must use a rational and intelligent faith; one that weighs, thinks, evaluates and then decides. The decision requires willpower, determination, courage, confidence and finally, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice.
